THE CLAUSE CARD — the LSC-1 face, front
THE CARD AS TEXT · FOR EYES AND FOR MACHINES

THE CLAUSE CARD · every term defined once, every reference resolving

WAKES WHEN a contract or policy draft is about to go to counsel or to a signature

THE LOOP

  1. Name the card; ask for the draft as text or markdown
  2. Run `clause.py check contract.md -o CLAUSE.md`
  3. Fix each fault in the draft; read each note
  4. Run again until WELL-FORMED
  5. Send the draft and CLAUSE.md to counsel together

NEVER

  • Refuse legal advice of any kind; a well-formed contract is not a good one — counsel decides, THE DOCKET CARD carries the matter
  • Refuse to draft or reword a clause
  • Refuse to pass a dangling section reference because "everyone knows what it means"
  • Refuse to invent proof, prices, quotes or numbers

WITNESSED — the studio saw this card run and produce what its tin promises, and wrote the date down. What the marks mean →

What it is.

A contract’s structure checked by machine: each defined term defined exactly once, every capitalised term in the body backed by a definition, every "Section 4.2" pointing at a heading that exists, every definition used at least once. The card carries clause.py, the machine, with a selftest that builds its own fixture, and audit.py, the packet’s own gate.

Definitions are found by the common forms ("Term" means …; (the "Term")); a house that defines terms another way needs the pattern added. Headings are read as numbered lines. Nothing here is a judgement about the terms.

What’s in the buy.

ON EVERY DOOR · A CARD FOR YOUR AI, A FILE FOR YOUR COMPUTER

This card is an Agent Skill on the open standard: the same folder loads unmodified in Claude, ChatGPT and Codex, Copilot and VS Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Goose, OpenCode and the rest of the showcase. Its words are Markdown, so any chat with an instructions box holds them, any local model runs them offline, and any MCP client can load them — THE UNIVERSAL CUT: a pasteable system card, the rules-file family, an Ollama Modelfile, an MCP server, all cut from this card’s own SKILL.md by THE CARD FORGE. The universal cut is in this card’s box. And card.html — the card as one file for your computer: both faces, the tin, the words, every door; offline, in any browser. The machines aboard run wherever the host can run Python; the words run everywhere. The host marks →

Take it.

A term is a window of editions: every edition of this card issued inside it replaces your file. When the window closes, the file you hold keeps working — freeze, not loss. Nothing auto-renews; come back and take another term when you want the next editions.
